HOW DO I DO THAT? WE CAN HELP.

You can do amazing things at your library, but sometimes all the technology may be a bit overwhelming. Just knowing where to go and what buttons to push makes tasks much easier. Library staff can help. Look for folks wearing an MPL name tag, and they will be happy to assist you.

When you log-into a computer in the Library’s computer lab or study rooms, use your 14-digit Evergreen Indiana (E.I.) Library Card number, which appears on the BACK of your E.I. library card. Type-in the number without any spaces, e.g., 27323001234567.

Print from a computer in the computer lab or study rooms?

Print your document(s) from whichever computer station you’re using. There should be a label or sign on the computer monitor indicating the station number. In most software, printing is usually done by clicking a printer icon (in the software’s tool bar) or by clicking FILE, then PRINT, in the software’s menu bar. Sometimes, you may also right-click the mouse and choose PRINT. VERY IMPORTANT:If you want to print in color, change the setting at the top of the pop-up window (default setting is black-and-white). To print, click the OK button in the pop-up window; then click the PRINT button in the second pop-up window. This sends your print job to the printer/photocopier.

Once you’ve sent your print job(s) to the printer/photocopier (across from the computer lab), you will need to print the document(s) at the printer/photocopier. Click here(or click the icon below) for step-by-step printing instructions.

Wireless Print from a laptop or other online device?

Send a Fax at the Library?

There is a public fax machine at the Library’s Circulation Desk, immediately to the right of a self-checkout station. Instructions taped to the counter walk you through the procedures. Price: $3 for the first page, and then $1 for each page thereafter.

Self-Checkout Items?

Use the three self-checkout stations (two at the Circulation Desk, one in the Grand Hall). Follow the prompts on the computer monitor. You will need your Evergreen Indiana (E.I.) library card. Watch our video below for step-by-step instructions.

Automatically Check-in Returned Items?

Use our sorter station to automatically check-in your returned items. Insert one item at a time, and follow the prompts on the monitor screen. You may print a receipt when finished. Watch our video below for step-by-step instructions.

Register For Library Programs?

Call (317) 831-7323 to register for library programs, or visit our online calendar to register over the Internet. You will need an Evergreen Indiana (E.I.) library card to register online, as well as a current password (your library card number is the username). Many of our programs do NOT require advance registration.

Have a Signature Notarized at the Library?

Ask for Sharon, Sandra, or Bill, our Notaries Public (State of Indiana). They would be happy to notarize your signature on an important document. (Watch our promo trailer for a laugh.)
